Nominated Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale Bare has been reassigned and moved from the Ministry of Defence to the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, and Forestry.
Soipan Tuya who served in the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, and Forestry has been nominated as Cabinet Secretary in the Ministry of Defence.
The swap of roles was revealed by National Assembly Speaker Moses Masika Wetang’ula on Tuesday, July 23, 2024, when the Parliament sessions resumed.
All other Cabinet nominations remain as announced by the President.
Meanwhile, the Speaker has confirmed that all Cabinet nominees will undergo vetting including those who were reappointed.
“The record that has arrived in this House is what I have read to you. Nobody will become Minister until and unless the President has written to Parliament, until Parliament has sat in Committee and vetted and until the Whole House has voted on the report of the vetting Committee,” said Wetangula.
